John 10

 

 1 

Jesus, our wonderful Shepherd

   Brought us right out of the fold

Into His pasture so plenteous,

   Into His riches untold.

 

Glorious church life,

Feasting from such a rich store!

Here where we're dwelling in oneness

God commands life evermore.

 

 2 

In the divisions He sought us,

   Weary and famished for food;

Into the good land He brought us,

   Oh, to our spirit how good!

 

Glorious church life,

Feasting from such a rich store!

Here where we're dwelling in oneness

God commands life evermore.

 

 3 

Jesus Himself is our pasture,

   He is the food that we eat;

We as His sheep are fed richly

   Each time, whenever we meet.

 

Glorious church life,

Feasting from such a rich store!

Here where we're dwelling in oneness

God commands life evermore.

 

 4 

Dwell we here on a high mountain,

   Wet with the morning-fresh dew,

Slaking our thirst at the fountain,

   Water so living and new.

 

Glorious church life,

Feasting from such a rich store!

Here where we're dwelling in oneness

God commands life evermore.

 

 5 

Christ is our rest and enjoyment,

   Here we have nothing to fear;

Here all the sheep dwell securely,

   Kept by His presence so dear.

 

Glorious church life,

Feasting from such a rich store!

Here where we're dwelling in oneness

God commands life evermore.
